The Senate may vote this year on a United Nations treaty that some conservative groups consider dangerous.
The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) has been voted out of committee to the full Senate. Chris Carmouche of GrassTopsUSA tells OneNewsNow the treaty masquerades as a measure to help people with disabilities, but it is really a ploy to promote a broader agenda.
"One of the very big problems, of course, is the fact that it does open the door towards the promotion of abortion on a worldwide scale, which is something that the UN has been after for a very, very long time," Carmouch explains.
The treaty also enables the promotion of the sexualization of children as young as five years old, and many sources believe it could open a door to teach normalization of the homosexual lifestyle. Carmouche further warns that it will intrude on US sovereignty.
"That's because our own Constitution actually does give treaties that we sign the weight of the law of the land," he notes. "In fact, we're basically giving our rights to make determinations in terms of legislation to an unaccountable chosen foreign body of individuals."
According to GrassTopsUSA, the CRPD will ultimately eradicate parental rights.
Three Republicans voted with the Democrat majority to send the document to the Senate for approval. Carmouche believes it could come up for a vote in the lame-duck session after the election.
